Sapphics celebrating “Festa Junina” from Brazil.
“Festa Junina” is a popular celebration that takes place in June and is strongly related to indigenous culture. Traditionally, this festival has its origins in the pagan harvest festivals, which were held by European peoples in honor of the fertility gods and the summer solstice.
In the Brazilian context, the June festival also incorporated elements of indigenous traditions, such as the indigenous new year and the corn harvest. For indigenous peoples, the period of June is marked by renewal rituals and thanks to the deities for the abundance of the harvest. Corn, a basic and sacred food for many indigenous ethnic groups, is a central element in this celebration, symbolizing abundance and connection with nature.
During the June festivities, it is common to find typical foods based on corn, such as pamonha, hominy and popcorn, as well as games, folk dances, bonfires and colorful decorations. The mix between European and indigenous traditions results in a festivity rich in cultural diversity, representing the importance of valuing and preserving the country's historical roots.
Thus, the Festa Junina becomes an opportunity to celebrate union, gratitude and respect for nature, bringing with it the influence of indigenous inspirations and highlighting the cultural plurality of Brazil.

Big fan of whenever a creator from one of the other languages meets Bad for the first time and he tells them his name is BadBoyHalo and explains it to them
Then they fucking hit it off and later the creator explains to him that no, he is not a bad boy, he is a good boy, he is GoodBoyHalo
